Default Why is Judaism not ridiculed like Christianity?

You know you could just answer the question
ridiculed and persecuted are not the same, its about you ridiculing the Christians, on every topic
its not about what happen in history, in America today
I know what happen to the Jewish people in WWII and that was sad, its just not about that, it what happen to Jesus is true that is also sad, still it just not about that

Judaism doesn't have preachers convincing patrons that it is their job to save the world from it's sins.

You are kidding of course.
Judaism has been persecuted from the beginning of time.
Jews and Judaism ?
Ever hear of the word antisemitism?

You mean by Muslims?
Do you like not own a TV?

Atheists don't attack Jews because Jews seldom attack Atheists. Jews, unlike some of the "self-righteous" Christians on this site, defend their religion rather than attack others. It's just to bad they don't accept Jesus as the Messaih.

Well, it is, if you count having your synagogues and cemeteries having been vandalized as ridicule.

Because Judaism doesn't try to push itself into everyone life, and it's not try to turn our nation into a theocracy.

Also, since the Jews don't believe in that silly New Testament, there's just so much less to ridicule!

Because they tend not to go around trying to convert people and telling them they are right and everyone else is wrong. Plus, throughout the centuries, Jews have been heavily persecuted by every group out there including the Christians. They also seem to have respect for most other religious groups and it shows in how they treat people not of their faith.

Where have you been? Jews have been ostracized, beaten and slaughtered throughout the world and nearly continuous throughout history. They tend to stick to themselves and don't see the need to turn everyone else in the world into a Jew. If Christians behaved better then perhaps they wouldn't be ridiculed so much. I'm not Jewish but I respect them much more than the "holier than thou" Christians I keep meeting!

I see two reasons:
1- The Holocaust inflicted too much pain on the Jews to be mocked
2- very powerful Jewish and Israeli lobbies in the US government!

Christians ridicule themselves, Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, etc. I will assume you are in a place where Christianity is the dominant religion. If this is the case than to ridicule a minority religion would be politically incorrect, therefore all the funny guys are only left to crack jokes against the funny Jew who died on the cross...Jesus.

because Christians are the ones stand in up and speak in up for the things that are right...in my opinion, also they are tr yin to help other because if u believe in something, u should share not force share your beliefs with others, if the religions that are lesser know are the ones who dint stand up for what they be live in

Compared to Christianity, Judaism can be verified just by reading scripture in plain language. When in Judaism there is a belief in one God, the Torah backs this up with no questions. Unlike Christianity where a 'trinity' is a 'mystery' and never answered satisfactorily.

And in other places, were men are chosen to be prophets, they dint claim to be God in the flesh, they are simply men. And there is no double talk if one is under the Law of God or not, even if it is perfect.

Comparing the two, Judaism is more straight forward than Christianity and in turn, not ridiculed as much.

Because they're not shoving their beliefs down everyone Else's throat; they take a 'live and let live' approach, they aren't militant in their beliefs, and they do not pass judgment on those who do not share their beliefs. All of those are unwritten tenants of Christianity.
